Premier League: Title Race Heats Up As Arsenal Face Fulham Test
Coach Unai Emery: Arsenal have a chance to put more pressure on Manchester City in the Premier League title race when they play Fulham on Saturday. But coach Mikel Arteta has a tough job managing his squad because of matches in both the league and Europe.
Arsenal returned to the top of the table after a narrow win over Newcastle United last weekend. They are now three points ahead of City, who were busy playing in the FA Cup. If Arsenal beat Fulham, they could go six points clear before City face Everton on Monday, adding pressure on Pep Guardiola’s side.
However, the challenge for Arteta is that this match comes between two important Champions League semifinal games against Atletico Madrid. The first leg ended 1-1 in Madrid, where Arsenal felt they should have had a late penalty. While Atletico can rest players this weekend, Arsenal still needs a strong team to stay ahead in the title race.
